HIV infection remains a major global health concern. Antiretroviral therapy has been shown to be effective in improving the quality of patients’ health. Recovery of BMI scores following the initiation of ART for HIV infection is clinically important for long-term health outcomes. It is necessary to find the effect of pre-treatment BMI and clinical characteristics on early immune recovery among patients treated with ART. This study aimed to assess the change of BMI and clinical responses. In the study, 93 people provided informed consent to participate. Almost of participants had BMI in normal weight (60.2%). There were 25.8% of patients had underweight. After 6 months, most of the study participants (98.9%) had BMI responses back to normal, and the proportions of patients who achieved clinical stages responses were increased significantly with p<0.05. Clinical stages responses is likely associated with patient's baseline CD4 T cell. In conclusion, the present study finding that the majority of patients respond to first-line ART. BMI and clinical stages recovery were significantly increase after 3 and 6 month treatment. Our findings in this study suggest that clinical recovery were likely associated with baseline T CD4 of patients.
